VNAF A-37B Dragonfly, 516 Fighter Squadron "Flying Tiger". Monogram 1/48 kit. Continue...

General fuselage and wings dry-fit assembly....
As the kit has nice fit over all, I use "Timber Mate" wood filler for the job, this is an Australian product which also can be used on plastic.  The beauty is that with fine gaps, after fillings and dry the excess filler can be washed with a old soft brush with damp warm water....no sanding required...
